BALTIMORE _ The way the weekend was trending, Gary Sanchez was going to be remembered for being picked off second base and third base and ruining scoring chances in two tight, late games.
Both times, the Yankees managed to outlast the rebuilding Orioles.
On Sunday, Sanchez didn't leave anything to chance.
Sanchez was never on base, he just trotted around them three times at Camden Yards, as the Yankees completed a three-game sweep with a 15-3 victory before 33,102 fans.
Sanchez's first career game with three home runs _ all two-run shots _ came as the Yankees designated hitter on Sunday, boosting a fine pitching effort by Domingo German.
With a chance to hit a fourth home run in the ninth inning, Sanchez flied out to left against Orioles middle infielder Hanser Alberto.
And after hitting the go-ahead home run in Saturday's eighth inning, Clint Frazier (4-for-5) homered twice on Sunday.
Austin Romine's ninth-inning homer off Alberto gave the Yankees seven for the game, the most they've hit in one game since 2007.
In his second start of the season, German (2-0) retired the 13 Orioles he faced before walking Rio Ruiz with one out in the fifth.
German had a no-hitter intact until No. 9 hitter Hanser Alberto's clean single to right with one out in the sixth.
The right-handed German started the seventh but did not retire either of the two batters he faced. Stephen Tarpley yielded both inherited runs, plus one of his own.
Gleyber Torres and Clint Frazier opened the scoring, blasting solo home runs in the second inning against O's right-handed starter David Hess.
Sanchez belted the first of his two homers in the third, giving the Yankees (5-4) a 4-0 lead against Hess (0-1), who lasted five innings.
At that point in the game, the Yankees had scored 18 runs in the series, all coming in on home runs.
Frazier's RBI single in sixth broke up that string.
A four-run seventh inning gave the Yanks a 9-0 lead on the Orioles (4-5), as Sanchez drove a two-out, two-run homer to left while DJ LeMahieu (double) and Giovanny Ushela (single) had RBI hits.
In the eighth, with two out, Sanchez hit a towering homer to left off Dan Straily, giving him six home runs in his first eight games this season.
